I enjoy cava but today the service was a bit slow. Very busy at lunch as usual but it is usually not slow. Beware....salmon in the build your own bowl is an upcharge though the staff led me to believe it was not. Everything was fresh and tasty except the salmon which was bland. read more

falafel kinda dry. so evidently Christopher doesn't work here anymore... for those of you that are unaware, Christopher opened the 29th street Cava branch. basically he walked so all of olive you could run. HE'S LITERALLY GUY CAVA's SON. So yeah, you can imagine how jarring it was to hear that they gave him the Cava V (glorimiddle finger). I mean Chris put the crazy in crazy feta and the piss in the braised lamb. Safe to say this place probably sucks now, good pita doe. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I had lunch here today and the food was amazing!! Fresh cooked chicken great portions and super friendly staff. Best Mediterranean food!!

We ordered ahead of time. I go into the place at the time it's supposed to be ready and I have to wait a couple minutes before they even start my order. They were waiting for the online orders to show up before they started making them. Completely DEFEATING the purpose of online ordering. Next I go home and no avocado on my bowl which is extra. I call to ask about how to get it refunded and no apology. Lastly there is barely anything in my bowl. It's a light snack at this point. When u usually order cava, the bowl is pretty full. Well I will provide pics of this bullshit of 14$ meal read more

I usually order from the Westminster location but tonight i placed an order via the app at the Boulder location. The order was 45 minutes late AFTER the scheduled ready time, 75 minutes after I ordered. The issue? They "ran out of chicken". Seems like nobody is running the show at this location. 75 minutes to make 3 salads is beyond ridiculous. read more

I was in Boulder and wanted something to munch on and thought an order of falafel for the road would be good. I called cava and asked how much an order of falafel was going to be and they said $3.99 for four. Well, that doesn't sound like a bad deal at all. I was only a few minutes away, so I stopped by. I probably should've known because the falafel's were all piled up in a bar like service area. I ordered the side of falafel with some tzatziki, and when I went to pay, it was $7.89. I said when I called I was told an order of four was $3.99. The lady said did you order tzatziki and I said yes. I said how much is the tzatziki which was about a tablespoon and a little cup, and she said $3.99. Never mind, you can buy a whole tub of Taziki for $4.00. Because I was hungry, I bought the falafel's anyway, and by far, the most disgusting "Greek"thing I've ever eaten. The so-called falafel was not crunchy in the least bit, absolutely flavorless, and tasted like refried beans,mixed with miniature, garbanzo beans, and no herbs whatsoever. Gross! Save your money and go to an authentic Greek place. This is fast food garbage, and yet another example of corporate America taking advantage of those on the go. read more

Food and customer service was greatt! the team works together nicely and always have a smile on their faces

This place is the worst Cava you will ever go to. Every time I come here they are out of at least two things I normally add to my bowl. The past few times they have only had 2 dressings available. The portion sizes suck and it always takes forever. read more

The food here is always fresh and tastes delicious. The staff is great, friendly, and always helpful at this location. River in particular is so happy go lucky and a bright personality. read more

My partner and I love going to this cava, and today's team on 10/12 from 1pm onwards were amazing. They handled a very large rush considerably well, and even gave sevive with a smile. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food is always great as is the ambience but I feel that today's crew needs a special mention above all else.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Cava Catastrophe! My Cava experience went from bad to unbelievably frustrating. First, the staff seemed totally lost. Then, disaster struck! The girl serving me actually dropped my bowl while piling on ingredients. While she was filling my bowl she was in such a rush and haphazardly remade the bowl, leaving my bowl barely half full. So basically, I got punished for their mistake with a skimpy portion. For the price Cava charges, you'd expect at least a full bowl and staff who know what they're doing. Save yourself the aggravation and skip this Cava. There are plenty of other Mediterranean places that won't treat you like an afterthought. :/// read more

My team and I were in town for business. Half of them have been to Cava before but the other have hadn't. Basically it is like middle eastern food served up chipotle style where you pick everything you want and modify how you want. It was a zillion times better than chipotle and I wish we had this where I live. Id absolutely go back. It was decent prices, it was filling. And love the customization options. I hate that I forgot to take a pic for Yelp. It's going to be mission of mine to always keep Cava in the back of my mind when traveling for work. Recommend and will go again. read more

I ordered my mobil order 45 mins ago and I have been in here for 35. They have not apologized or given me any update. Instead I am getting rude looks and no help. Very bad customer service and a very long wait time. I would not recommend. read more

Best (and only) Cava in Boulder! We've been regular customers for the past year-or-so. Great management, better food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They got these real nice paintings on the wall that make you feel better about blowing 15$ on a bowl of rice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Go here. Skip the chipotle that's right across. read more

Kava is always super tasty and a healthy post workout snack. Great service too! Izzy was especially helpful and super friendly!

If you have never been here before and can try one of the pre-made bowls, do that because it is really easy to make something that is far too salty. Their falafels are really salty and pairing them with olives or feta will leave you disappointed at the saltiness of your meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has been pretty clean when we have been there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space can be a little tight when it is busy, but generally it hasn't been too busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This is a casual restaurant that should be able to accommodate food allergies. We reviewed the online material for food allergies. However, when the dairy allergic person in my family who ordered things that did not contain his allergens, he ended up with hives because there are some cross-contamination issues going on here. This was our third visit to this restaurant, and up until now I had felt reasonable good about it. read more

I had a great meal here! I usually love to try new places around Boulder and tutus was great! Prices are moderate and they offer mostly pitas, bowls, and salads. I loved the Falafel pita a lot! The bread was very soft and warm and tasty. They offer many toppings like pickles and vegetables. Lots of sauces too. I really love the taste and fresh ingredients. Definitely coming back soon! read more

Honestly the nastiest Cava I've ever had and I am a loyal Cava goer. I'm not one to leave reviews, but everything about this location was NOT IT. From the staff who were less than enthusiastic the moment we walked in (literally none of them made eye contact or had any customer service skills) to the low quality food, I was super disappointed. An employee was making my bowl and an online order at the same time and whatever he was putting on that online order was dropping into my bowl. The line was also not that big that he had to do that. The portions were TINY compared to the usual Cava I go to in Denver. I got there at 8pm and I know Cava closes at 9pm, but they were handing out SCRAPS to people. The basmati rice tasted like straight water, the chicken shawarma had no flavor, and all the toppings were not fresh. I thought it was just me but then I tried my finance's bowl, and realized it his bowl was also disgusting. It feels like I took the $32 I paid for these and threw it in the literal trash can. I was raging hungry so I forced it down. Gross & will not be coming back to this location. Good thing it's by a college campus where it's convenient, otherwise this location would go downhill. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION read more

CAVA honestly reminds me of Roti in Chicago and sort of like Sweetgreens. Store is like a Chipotle concept where you go on an assembly line to make your own bowl (your choice of grain bowl, salad or both - greens & grains, proteins, spread/dip and toppings) or opt for their chef created bowls. I got myself the Lemon Chicken bowl and requested for a scoop of the Harissa which added a kick to my meal. If you want something spicy, definitely ask them to add it for you, Overall, I like it. They don't skimp on the meat too so you do get the bang for your buck. I think I discovered a new go-to for lunch or dinner! Will definitely come back. I think I'll make my own bowl or go for the Harissa Avocado bowl. Parking shouldn't be a problem because it's in a plaza. read more

if you're not ordering in store, don't bother. their online ordering systems whether that's the app, website, doordash is horrible. you won't get your food, you won't get your refund, and you'll waste 30+ minutes of your time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]location is clean and looks nice though.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] plenty of parking around. read more

Food was terrible, cold, mushy and salty. Service was O.K. Restaurant is very cold and stark. This is not healthy food or close to qualifying as Mediterranean diet food. read more

This location was absolutely disgusting! This was my husband and I's first time being here and there were flies and garbage everywhere. We honestly couldn't believe it. Every single table had food all over it and rice all over the floor. The drinks were all empty and the employees were joking around and laughing constantly. Clearly, they're all high. They even rolled their eyes at a customer for asking a question about the sauce. This is the filthiest and most disgusting fast food restaurant I've been to and that says a lot. read more

Good food, quick with lots of options. Have both eaten in (pre-pandemic) and ordered online to go (this month). Located at the 29th street mall so lots of parking but also lots of cars during prime times. Parking is tough. There are dedicated 'pick up' spaces. We love that you can customize any bowl (our family is a BIG fan of bowls). Order was easy. Food is tasty and portions are spot on. We got a couple of bowls, a salad and a pita. All customizable which is awesome because everyone in our family likes slightly different ingredients (of course!). 4 stars because their pick up system needs a little work. There is a big rack with a "Pick Up" sign on it, but apparently there is a second pick up rack behind the register unaccessible to customers. Arrived to pick up our order - not on the big rack. Stood and waited for 10 minutes while the cashier dealt with a line out the door. Finally saw staff put a back on the rack inaccessible to customers. Not a huge deal, but a super easy thing to fix. read more

Did a build my own bowl and it was great. I got the honey chicken and steak combo, added all the toppings and got the Harisa sauce and the Shug sauce combo, delish! I'll be back read more

This place never disappoints, so glad there's a Cava in this location :) Really efficient and nice staff, I was in and out of there within 10 minutes during peak hour! Great option for on the go, def takeout friendly. Only downside is they served me super super dry and hard brown rice, it was like the remaining bits at the bottom of the pan. When I mixed my bowl it was rock hard and impossible to eat. They were nice and made me a new one! read more

We ordered doordash delivery on evening of 5/24/23. Received completely uncooked lentils, rock hard and literally chipped my canine tooth. I had to sort them out of my bowl to cook separately on the stove. So disappointing because ever since I moved away I look forward to getting cava every time I come home. I've never had such a poor experience here. read more

CAVA - What I received (top) vs after I cooked at home (bottom) - Mediterranean Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

We were starved after traveling but also wanted to get something moderately healthy because of it. We found this spot thanks to Yelp! We went in and ordered, the setup is pretty easy to figure out. It's kind of like Chipotle with the BYO vibe but different products. They were out of a few things but I don't hold it against them, it's the world we live in now! The lady who took our order was sweet and quick. The food portions were large and delicious. Hit the spot and exactly what we needed so we didnt feel terrible later with the lack of exercise. read more

This place is a great find. Not super cheap, but the Quality of the ingredients seems quite high and you get a good deal of food, so it's a pretty good value. Went there tonight, it was my fourth time there. The customer service has always been exceptional, tonight a young man named Riley helped us. He was very friendly welcoming and accommodating. Someone give that guy a high five, he's helping make your business great. read more

First time I came here the food was great. I visited a second time and ordered a bowl with brown rice and super greens. Once I got down to the bowl with the rice, it was extremely undercooked to the point it was painful to the teeth. I went up and told the cashier that the rice was undercooked and she replied, "I know, I'm sorry." That was the end of the conversation and she continued to ring up the next customer in line. Why would you knowingly serve undercooked food? Thanks for the toothache, Cava! read more

This place was great. It's clean and the staff is friendly. I always go with a build your own bowl so I get exactly what I want. I love the variety of protein and base options. Right rice is so good and this is the only place I know that offers it as a substitute for regular rice. If you like Mediterranean, this is a great fast-casual spot! read more
